Tuesday 23.10



After having delicious and greasy breakfast we walked to the UNI with full of joy!

Topic`s of the day were wind power and grids. An Austrian professor showed us differences in grid structures between Ireland, Austria and Finland. The professor had a good sense of humor and he told few good jokes which was needed because the lesson was 3 hours long. Middle of the day we had 1,5 hour off-time so some of us went to the shopping centre to buy some toys. But place was disappointment and no toys were found.

The afternoon session consisted wind power and lecturer by Credit introduced us the campus wind turbine which was very interesting. The professor showed us some facts and figures of wind power. One of the most fascinating things mentioned and discussed was the use of local small wind turbine and how fast it pays itself back. Although the turbines are very expensive they really can pay itself back quite quick, if they works. After all, very small wind turbines are not profitable yet if the price of electricity doesn´t rise significantly. 

At the end of the day we had a student hub where we were finalizing our projects. That was very interesting! Most of us got the poster ready.
